Nice and yeasty in the Champagne region style. Not fruit forward. I tasted almost no fruit, just fresh baked bread. If you want the shell of Champagne for a fraction of the price, this is a no brainer.

Assembled from dozens of individual lots, this sumptuous brut is an example of the art of blending. Based on Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, it's really as delicious and refined a sparkling wine as you could want for drinking now;. Shows lush citrus, strawberry, honey, melon, fig and spice flavors that are wrapped into a smooth, silky bubbling mouthfeel.

A nearly perfect Carneros sparkler. It is made with mostly Pinot Noir as evidenced by its copper tint and slight cherry flavor. Effervescent, clean and structured. The apotheosis of California sparklers.

This is Mumm Napa's workhorse brut. It's a beautiful sparkling wine that satisfies that basics of elegance and lusciousness. Shows raspberry, lime, brioche and smoky flavors, with a slightly sweet dosage and a refined mousse.
